In a Funk

The girls in this house are all moody today.

This one got shots today, so she has a reason. Plus, being moody is pretty much baseline for her. We've been blaming it on teething for four months now.

Is it too early for Abbey to be hormonal?

I think it's two things for me. One, having very little, if any, 'me' time the last two months. Obviously I indulged and played in Photoshop today, but that left me feeling very guilty. It's a vicious cycle.

Then the stupid residency match. It's less than 3 weeks away, is becoming more real, and I just have to know, NOW. I've been so good up to this point, not letting myself think about it and dwell on it. And I actually don't have a preference on our top five picks--any of them would be fantastic for different reasons. But I just feel in limbo--are we staying, are we going, do I pack, do I find a renter?

There's my whining for the day. Come back tomorrow when we're more chipper. Or send chocolate. No don't, I'm on a diet and lack the self-control. Oh hello! Ding-ding-ding. I'm sure all this could boil down to that!

Um, no, she is not too young to be hormonal. I swear Kennedy cycles without really cycling....painful eye-opener for my future with a teenager. But--your girls are oh so cute! Eat chocolate and play on photoshop. Start over tomorrow with everything else.

I don't know why that posted twice---my comment wasn't that great.

I am jealous of Abbey's hair. It is so cute! You would think that Kylee would be done with the awkward hair stage by now, but she's not.

Your girls are so so beautiful. :) Even if they are moody! I hope this time in limbo goes by fast...I know the feeling too. It's just nice when you can finally get your answers so you can start planning.

You take the most beautiful photos.
I was cracking up over this post. I tell everyone I would have been happy with 10 boys, for the horomone reason alone. I know what kind of girl I was and heaven forbid I have one just like me! Maybe that is why they are so darn cute, it makes it difficult to stay mad at them :-)

Even in a funk, your girls are gorgeous. I totally feel your Match Day pain. You and Justin must plan on going on a date while I'm there. I promise not to stuff your kids in my luggage.

Oh man. Could be the winter blues too. Your girls are so cute - I hope they quit the moodiness for good. :) I know exactly what you mean about feeling guilty and being a vicious cycle - I stay up late indulging in "me" time (like now) and then I'm tired the next day, by the end of the day I'm needing lots of "me" time and so forth! Aaaaahhhhh! By the way - you better get off the diet! That definitely can't be helping. :)
